I am stopping paying this year... unfortunately paid a full year, so I have it until December. But yeah, its not worth for monetization (and I know I did it wrongly, because I was trying to see how they control things). Especially because they have the rules in such a way, they can twist the narrative to their agenda.

And the outcome is, you either have been working for them quite daily non-stop for a very long time, bringing attention to their network, or they have reserved the power of saying "No".

The part that makes me feel a bit disgusted about having spent some time doing some experiments, is that others doing the same, get along with it. Why? because they only say what X wants to hear. They are basically robots tasked to please X investors. And if you try to have a conversation with those "robots", they look pallid, and weird with their responses (or just ignore you).

Because they don't want to displease the master. And because the rules say that you can't too.

Anyhow, its basically hiring marketing robots for some peanuts (for them), depending how much influencial your are.

Grok++ was nice, while on super premium last year, but now its pointless, given the same AI tools exist everywhere for cheaper or free, and they are also much better now.

And community wise, 99% of them anyhow are here on Hive. Hence, I am stopping feeding them. And I am also sure the moment I stop paying, I will be target for more "censorship" of "we don't like those things here, so we are going to ban you" (by using, you are being too much of this thing that looks like that kind of thing, therefore is that kind of thing argument).

There's a couple examples I have gone through on all these years of usage. And there is no reason for those arguments given the history of the accounts. So, my only guess, is because of interests/bullying and sorts.

Will still use what I can from it. But mostly as "just another tool" for reaching out. Anyhow... almost a post too! LOL #rant #day
